Artist Talk on Rembrandt this Sunday
Artist Talk on Rembrandt this coming Sunday.
Famous for his characterful portraiture, Rembrandt did an annual ‘selfie’. Much of his personality comes across in these, as do the highs and lows he experiences as he went from wealth to bankruptcy until all that was left was his faith. This was the moment he realised that faith was the most precious thing he had. Hear his story as part of our informal cafe style church this Sunday. 10.30, Helensville Community Church, 40 Mill Rd., Helensville (next to the Hospice Shop). The auditorium is set out like a cafe and food and drinks are available throughout the service at no cost.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
